Charge tt to Burster. "Excuse me, sir, but bve 70a a check r "Tea, here it is," and th guest passed cmt bis little brass ticket to the clerk at tbe Lindell sad was soon on bis way np stairs. "We bare to insist," said tbe clerk to a reporter who was standing Br. "It's so use. With all my experience I can't tell one of those fellows yet" "Yon bsTe met with many dead-beats in your time V "Well, I should say I bad. There have been very few cases in this boose, principally because everybody is so closely watched, bnt at other plaees where I have been the work of this kind done baa been tremendous. "What is the usual 'lay with hotel dead-beats V "Oh, its as variable as the weather in Colorado. They try all kinds of games. A fellow comes in, signs his name in tbe register and then appeals to me about his baggage. Sometimes be even has a check. It has been left somewhere, it is behind, something is the matter. He remains a day, expresses his disappoint ment that his track has not turned up, goes out the next morning to look it up, and we see him no more. Most hotels now make it a rule that no man without baggage can stop without paying bis bill in advanoa. We can generally tell, however, and we do not draw the rule too stringently. "Do yon often get left by not drawing the rule too tight?" "Oh, yes," the clerk replied, while another, who was standing near, laughed king and loudly. "Before I came here an old gentleman, or rather a d d old scoundrel, took me in nicely. He looked ao good, and venerable, and noble-like, you know. He registered bis name, and then he told me that bis son had left him at New York, expecting to be in St Louis as soon as he was, that he ex pected him in that night, that he was usable to get along without Charlie's care, and all that kind of thing. After dinner he carps down to inquire again. and is some way be found out that I used to live down East, and he soon knew all About me. Well, I guess I got kind of stuck on the old rooster. He remained thres days without putting up anything, and the proprietor began to kick, but I said. "All right I'll be responsible, and then he said, "All right" On the fifth day, the old gentleman, I mean the well, never mind showed me a tele gram from his son dated Chicago, and asking should he come on. The old gentleman asked me to write the answer, which he immediately sent, telling him to come at onee. That afternoon the old man thought he would take a walk. inquired about the Court-house and other public buildings here, sauntered down Fifth street leisurely and was never seen again. He cost me $23 75. "Did you ever near from him ?" "No. I never expected to. I tele graphed the house in Chicago where be said his son was staying, and I found that another fellow about his age had been working the same racket there, waiting for his father and all that They played it fine on both of us, but the experience is worth the money lost" "You are sharper than that now, are vou not ? "Well, it don't do to be too smart You may make mistakes the other way, which are twioe as bad. The other day a man, rather dilapidated, came in here. He had not much taste in dressing had shed his collar, and his shirt was by no means as clean as it ought to be. He registered, said nothing about a check, and was sent up stairs. By and by I wrote him a short note and sent it up by the bell-boy, stating that it was custom ary with people who had no baggage to pay their bills beforehand. He told the boy he would be down presently, and sure enough down he came. He excused himself, said he bad forgotten about bis checks and handed me over four of them. Then he asked me if I would keep a little property for him in tbe safe, and of course I said yes. He began to disgorge, and you bet I opened my eyes. First he hauled out a roll of 'centuries' in which there must have been at least one hundred bills. He followed this by raking out rolls from nearly every pocket be had, and then giving me nearly $2,000 worth of dia monds belonging to his wife to put away for him. I was very muoh set back. He never even smiled, never remarked that he guessed he wss good for his bill, never showed the least signs of being angry about my suspicions against him. If he had gone to the proprietor and made a kick, yon see I would be in a 'd 1' of a fix." "How?" "Well, hotel proprietors are usually very queer in their ways. Anything that goes well is all right, and vice versa. The clerk must shoulder all the responsibility. If you let a man pass. deceived by his appearance, and he bilks you, you are to blame. If on the other hand you draw the rein too close and some guest like the one I just told you about gets pinched and mad and squeals to the proprietor, then you also catch biases. So you are on the ten terhooks all the time." "Is the old game of 'loaded' carpet- sacks and trunks worked much at pres ent?" "Well, no, although every bouse gets a doel of this standard ruse now and then. I am glad to ssy that it is dying out to some extent" "What is the usual racket now ?" "Oh, notes, drafts, etc, which they want cashed, or which they deposit as collateral. We take all that kind of thing, as a usual rule, but before the guest has turned his back to go up-stairs we have begun to telegraph to find out all about him. In this manner we prevent him getting in on us very heavily." "Is this item of loss a large one?" "Yea, larger than you would think. In some of the Eastern houses it runs from 4,000 to $5,000 a year. To this ought to be added the couple of thou sands of dollars paid to extra help to watch this class. "How is it out West V "Well, there are not so many slick ones traveling here as in the East The bouses here get pinched some, however, and often pretty bad. I should judge that the average for the larger houses in St Louis would be about $1,500 a year. Some of them, now employ special ietectives, but it seems impossible to Jmiinate the 'dead-beat" Gbjuxims ton Wirrxs Buxnuve.

Keep them well watered, with sunlight after a few days, and allow them to remain in tbe open air as long as possible. Wben driven to the boose by frost place them by south, esst or if obliged to, by west window. Water them dsilay. but not have them water soaked; have plenty 01 moisture in tbe air by means of evaporation of water it you are a martyr to this so-called modern improve ment By January or Febuary flowering will begin. Of course the care they re ceived and favorableness of surroundings will have much to do with the profusion of bloom. Moisture in the air is absoluty essential to success. The erdinsry iron or coal stove, or dish between tbe stove-pips and stove, or attached to the pipe, is little or no good. Tbe best means we have found is to remove the top of the stove, which is usually moveable to admit tbe coal, and have a pan of tin or copper made to fit the depression, which is generally in the top casting. If this dish holds a gal lon or so. all the better for the plants, and tne more conductive to the health of tbe occupants of the room. The best jar for plants is the old-fashioned, brick-colored crock. Avoid all that are glazed upon the outside or lnsine. The glasing prevents evaporation through the pores of the jars, and geraniums will net thrive well without this. Small boxes put together with screws, or dovetailed, make excellent - receptacles for growing plants. Geraniums and plants generally do best in medium-sized, "lowi&k" rooms. This becomes one of the compensations for living in small or cottage houses; you can have your windows in dreary winter "blooming as the rose," while those of stately mansions present a barren or scraggy appearance. Thi exposure of the windows of the cheese room should be toward the north and east and in co'd weather a double sash is most desirable. In this close, even room, ws are able to detect the aroma of the strictly fine cheese. On opening the door to enter, tbe perfume strikes the sense most pleasantly. The odor can be likened to that from many fragrant sources, as fancy dictates. At one time, in turning up tbe cheese, the perfume of tbe pine apple is certainly apparent; again, we think only of the strawberry, or the rofe. Under what ever name, there it is, a de licately subtle exhalation of cheese cuds, which shows the maker where he stands. The character of that cheese is fixed be yond a question. If the patrons would take pains to inform themselves on this point of flavor it might help them t de cide how the work of the season is pro gressing. This perfume, however, need not be looked for unless all other exterior signs of cleanliness and care correspond. It will not be found in connection with cracked, leaky cheese, or in a room where the floor is all spotted over whith wbey running from the tables. Wild Rick. The Canadian government are said to be trying to cultivate and stim ulate the growth of the plant. Known as "wild rice" in all the inland waters of the Dominion. It grows annually from seed, and induce the presence of wild fowl in the autumn, which visit these rich lakes and extensive beds of food. Sportsmen's clubs are also taking means to extend its STOWth, as it attracts game of all lunds. In some plaees, where it grows prolificacy, it has been cut before seed time by manu factures, who find its fibre, taken from the under surface of the water to a depth of six or seven feet, to be very valu able. It affords, it is said tbe strongest kind of fibre known for making bank note parchment paper. Most farmers probably believe that the great hulk of the constituents ef their crops is derived from the soil. This is a vary great mistake. Take, for instance, a hay or pasture field. The carbon, hydro gen and oxygen of tbe plants are derived from the atmosphere, the nitrogen and mineral matter from the soil. This would be equivalent to 92 per cent of dry hay being derived from the atmosphere and only 8 per cent from the sou. It Sunlight Blue f Professor 8. P. Langley, of the Allegheny Observatory, started on July 1 for an expedition of scien tific and popular interest The main ob ject of this expedition is to determine by actual experiment tne amount of beat given by the sun to the eartn. The co-operation of Ueneral ttazen, Ubiet of the Signal Ser vice Bureau, has been given to the enter prise, and it proceeds under his official direction. To attain its special object the expedition must seek one of the most ele vated summits on the continent in an ex tremely and region, these two conditions bang essential. These are only to be found combined in the remote localities of Ari- zonia and Southern California. Two adja cent stations will be selected, respectively at heights of 8,000 and 14,000 feet for purposes of companion through their thick nesses of atmosphere. Another object will be to prove by a new class of experiments a curious conclusion which Professor Lang- ley has already amvea at, to tne effect that the sun is not really a white, or yellow, of even a red object, but that sunlight is in reality a deep blue. Tbe proof that we have a blue sun is, however, somewhat con clusive at present, but this expedition is likely to add to the strength of the proof. This Li not merely a subject of curious in quiry. If our atmosphere in reality has plsyed the part of yelloy glasses, it follows that an enormous proportion of the sun's heat has never been taken into account in those questions of scientific meteorology which nave a special bearing on climate. and hence upon agriculture and other prac tical an airs. ArcticExploration. Dr. Wild, Presi dent of the International Polar Commis sion, has issued a circular stating that six countries have already intimated their in tention to cooperate in carryfng out the scheme 01 simultaneous meteoroloeicaL magneticaL and other physical observa tions In the Arctic regions. These coun tries, with the proposed stations, are Den mark at Upernivik. Norway in Fin mark. Austria-Hungary in Jan Mayen, or perhaps East Greenland, Russia in Kovaya Zemyla and at tbe mouth of tbe Lena, Sweden in Spitsbergen, and the United States at Point Barrow and in Lady Franklin Bay. Should other countries send in their adhesion to the scheme, this disposition of the stations may be somewhat modified. There is a probability that Get many may established a station in the island of south Ueorgia, and France a station at Cape Horn. An interesting feature in the scheme is that two of the eight proposed Arctic stations are to be equipped at the expense et pri vate individuala, viz., the station in Jan Mayen or in East Greenland at the expense of Count H. von Wilczek. of Vienna, and the station in Spitzbergen, by M.

Pro fessor Erasmus Wilson, of Louden, gives the weight of his eminent authority in favor of ammonia as a healthful stimulant for tbe hair, being preferable because it is un likely to create inflammation and its conse quences; it is neither absorbable into the system, nor could it do harm if such were the case; ana Its oaor, rerresmng at me moment of its use, speedily evaporates. In a case of ordinary madesia, or falling out of the hair, Professor Wilson prescribes a lotion composed of strong liquor ammonia, almond oil -and chloroform, of each one part, diluted with five parts of alcohol or rosemary, and made fragrant by the addi tion of adrachm of the essential oil of lem ons the lotion to be dabbed upon the skin of the head after thorough friction with the hair brush. Usss or a Sabd Bao. One of the most convenient articles to be used in a sick room is a aand bag. Get some clean, fine sand, dry it thoroughly in a kettle on tbe stove, make a bag about eight inches square of flannel, fill it with the dry sand, cover the bag with cotton or lined cloth. This will prevent the sand from sifting out and will also enable you to heat the bag quickly by placing it in the oven, or even on the top of the stove. After onee using this you will never attempt to warm the hands of a sick person with a bottle of hot water or a brick. The sand holds the heat a long time, and the bag can be tucked up to the back without hurting the invalid. It is a good plan to make two or three of the bags and keep them ready lor use. Vibt many persons wonder why the cranberry sauce that they have at home is hard, thick, and dark. A dish of cooked cranberries in the glsas ought to be some thing very beautiful, light and delicate. To a quart of the fruit put one cupful of water and two cupfuls of sugar in a porcelain lined stewpan. Place on the fire where they may stew slowly for two Hours, do not dare to touch, much less to stir them with a SDOon. That kills, solidifies, and blackens them. So does too fast cooking. But cook very slowly or you will spoil tbe whole thing. Mast housekeepers waste a great deal of bread by throwing away all the pieces; here are some of the ways to use them up: Bread pudding may be made much more palatable by putting the yolks of two or three eggs in the pudding, and reserving tbe whites; when baked, spread jelly or any kind cf sauce over the top; beat the whites stiff, add a little sugar, set in the oven and let brown.

About tnree teaspoonf uls of this emulsion are required for about one-quarter of a pound of starch. To keep ice in a cck room, get a circle of muslin large enough to cover tbe top of a tumbler and extend an inch over its aide, like the paper cover to a preserve jar.

The aching void of a black and empty nrepiace in summer has proved a source of annoyance to many generations of sensitive housekeepers, and Tanous ingenious con trivances have been evolved to render its yawning blackness less oppressive. It may be that practical unimaginative minds can scarcely appreciate the possibility of a fire ready laid in a prosaic grate being made to look picturesque or artistic. Yet an tngun writer enthusiastically describes such a cold fire apparently waiting the ap plication 01 the match. Slightly protrud ing between the lower bars was a crumpled piece of greenish tinted paper; over this lay a small faggot, with its binding loosed, of dry twigs; upon this was judiciously placed a lot of dean, knobby coal, the whole surface mounted by a magnificent yule log, carefully selected for its shape and the picturesque distribution in its up per surface of some moat covered broken bark. Esthetic housekeeper, who are puzzled to know how tc fill np their empty fireplaces in the summer tune can try the effect of this admirable device, worthy, ac cording to this writer's view, of bang studied with advantage by a painter of still life. .

(Jiokok I., on a journey to Hanover, stopped at a Tillage in Holland, and wbi'e the horses were getting ready, he asked for two or three eggs, which were brought to him and charged 200 florins.

Om of the recent Germ an inventions consists of new kind of cloth, which is composed principally or entirely of sponge. In Us manufacture the sponges are first thoroughly beaten with a heavy hammer, in order to crush all the mineral and vege table imparities, ao that they can be easily washed out ; they are then pared with a sharp knife, the paring being sewed to gether. The fabric which is thus obtained is described as beng ires irom au tne uan (er which sometimes arises from absorp tion of Dotsonous dyes into the system ; it absorbs without checking the perspiration, so as to fin.imsh the danger of taxing coia, it is a conductor, and therefore helps to maintain a uniform surface temperature ; it can be more readily cleansed than tbe or dinary woolen garments ; its flexibility de creases the liability of chafing ; and the ease with which it can be employed in shoes, stockings, drawers, undet shirts and other articles of clothing, will, it is thought, render the new material especially useful as a protection against rheumatic and pul monary attacks. Tartaric Acid in Diphtheria. -The topical use of tartaric acid in diphtheria has been successfully resorted to by M. VidaL who. in one of the foreign medical journals, remarks upon the necessity of thus making use of topical agents against tbe false membrane, as it has a great tend ency to spread by a sort of auto-inoculation, comparably to what occurs in certain cutaneous affections. His formula is ten parts, bv weight, of tartaric acid, fifteen of glycerine, and twenty-five of mint water. The add acts upon tne iaise mem brane, converting it into a gelatinous mass and favors its expulsion. Ia it aoeathla That a remedy made of such common, sun pie plants as Hops, Buchu, Mandrake, Dandelion, &c. make so many and such marreloOT and wonderful cures as Hop Bit ten dot It must be, for when old and young, rich and poor, Pastor and Doctor, Lawyer and Editor, all testify to having been cured by them, we must believe and doubt no longer. nt (Vnrua has sent to England one of the oldest pieces of ordin ance In existence, it is oi cast iruu auu weighs twenty-five hundred weight.

Lemon Juice in Diphtheria. Dr. J. R. Page, of Baltimore, in the New York Medical Record, May 7, 1881, invites the attention oi the profession to the topi cal use of fresh lemon Juice as a most effi cient means for the removal of membrane from the throat, tonsils, etc., in diphthe ria. In his hands (and he heard several of his professional brethren say the same) it has proved by far the best agent he has yet tried for the purpose, lie applies the juice of the lemon by means of a camel's hair prokang. to the affected parts, every two or three boms, and in eighteen cases on which he has used it the effect has been all he could wish. The following is said to be sn excellent cement for rubber : Powdered shellac is softened in ten times its weieht ot strong water of ammonia, which beeomes fluid after keeping some little time without the use of water. In three or four weeks the mixture is perfectly liquid. Wben applied it softens the rubber, which hardens again as the ammonia evaporates. A. M. Dotlx, of Columbus, Oa., says that from experience be knows "beliefs' Liver PUls" to be the beet in use. John Loto, of Belfest, has invented an apparatus for lifting quite large forest-trses from the ground, for the purpose of trans planting, lie removes about a foot of eartb from tbe roots, and then the tree is lifted bodily with a great mass of earth, and is easily carried where wanted. He trans plants trees from tour to fourteen lncbes in diameter. It is a work in which he has been engaged for several years with much success. Hoe?a8. at evening party ; "What leav ing already, Mr. Mivers T I've scarcely seen anything of you the whole evening." Mr. Mirers, who goes in for the courteous man ners of the olden times: fcxit gracefully, but recalls, to his horror, half way down stairs, that he meant to say "misfortune" instead of "fault."

A Fbexch chemist asserts that if lea be ground, like coflYe, iramedia'ely before hot water is poured upon it, its exhilarating qualities will be dnublea. Some of the samples of ice analyzed by A. Kudiger yielded large quantities of al buminoid ammonia. A Merino ram Croat ed on a flock of common sheep, will double the yield of wool through the first cross alone, thus paying for the ram the first season. As intelligent farmer says that the leaves and stalks horn an acre of corn are worth as much to feed to stock aa the hay which could bs raised upon the same amount of land. Thi following is recomended at a cure for garget in cows: Eight drops of tinct ure of aconite dropped on a piece of bread and mixed with the food at night. Next morning four drops more given in the same manner will generally complete the cure. rttos aael at oaqultaoa. - 15a boa "Bough en Bats" keeps s boose free from firaa, bad-bogs, roaches, rata, mios, o.
